Castillo vs. Corrales...THE BIG MISCONCEPTION!

[DANGER13]

its gonna b a great fight another war. it could go either way, my guess is castillo by ko. he almost had him lastt time but we know wat happened....then there willll b a third fight another classic. but if diego wins wats next for him?? would he go to 140?

Scrap thankyou for making this post, seems now a days a cant write **** in here without being called bias.This is right on and its everything ive been preaching from day one.Still a very even fight, its gonna go either way again.Im rooting for my favorite fighter ofcourse. I hope Castillo doesnt let his guard down this time.It is obvious he thought the fight was in the bag and just plain ****ed up.

All the hard work he put in is gonna be hard to repeat.Corrales has a big advantage with Goosen in his corner.Like Goosen was saying he thinks Castillo should be #1 p4p and he didnt take him lightly.He knew the sort of fight he had to bring to beat Castillo.He knew very well that Diego had to jump on him early and tire Castillo just as much as himself cause he knows very well that Castillo gets stronger as the other fighter gets weaker.ICANT WAIT FOR THE REMATCH!

I dunno if they can top that first fight but if anything close, this would be a great fight as well. I like Castillo by TKO in 11th or less.

Honestly, i do not see Castillo winning this fight at all... The first fight was All Corrales if anyone noticed.. He would of won on points, Corrales is a better slugger and boxer IMO, Castillo wouldn't stand a chance, that punch that dropped Corrales and his comeback showed that Diego could of taken this dude out at anytime... Castillo got KOed, he's never been KOed so this gives a mental advantage to Corrales.. Corrales will come in swinging, and i don't see Castillo weathering that storm. i mean geeze, Castillo has 7 losses, i don't see him as being on the same level as Corrales, i see Corrales moving up in weight and going for a Jr. Welter Weight belt after this..

After reading all the threads and opinions on the remtach I have come across 1 common opinion that I feel to be dead ass wrong.

The fans of Diego Corrales and the ones who map out his strategy for victory against JL Castillo like to say that all he needs to do is box from the outside and he can make the fight easy.

Yes this is the same Diego Corrales who was humiliated from the outside by Floyd, yes this is the same Diego who barely hung on from the outside against Casamyor in the second fight and yes the same Diego who was losing on points quite comfortably to Freitas before Acelino's legs told him no more boxing, you must stand and fight and yes he is fighting a guy in JL Castillo who gave Floyd Mayweather the toughest 24 rounds of his career by a ****ing mile.

I hear all Corrales has to do is box...to me that style will get him killed. Watch the first fight, the left hand that knocked Diego silly was outside fighting and Diego was coming in...there is a reason why Goosen and Corrales are preparing for a second war and intend to brawl instead of box...Diego needs to see punches coming, he needs to brace himself for them, fighting on the outside is suiccide and Goosen knows it and the Chico faithful have been blinded.

This is a upickem fight, Chico's power is one of a kind and it scares the hell out of me as a JL diehard, fighting at a distance is something every JL fan should welcome, it is just too bad Goosen knows his fighter alot better than his fans do...boxing JL is not a winning idea does anyone else feel the same way as me and Joe Goosen do or do you subscribe to the theory that all Chico has to do is box and it is an easy night?

this is true
despite his long limbs and height
ive never seen him as a boxer
he looks made to stand n slug
the way he gets all his leverage on his punches
how quick n compact

Corrales can't and will not take out Castillo when ever he wants to. Castillo was already wore down as well as Corrales when he got dropped. If Corrales could take out Castillo easy then he would of done it earlier in the fight but he couldn't.

Corrales was ahead on points close on two scorecards if the fight went the distance there would be almost no way Corrales would of won with the three point 10th. Those three points in a close fight made it to where he had to knock Castillo out which he ended up doing.

What scares me about JLC is his ability to take a punch. At times I think he's not human the way he gets hit & keeps going. On the other hand Chico's power is unreal. Chico can box from the outside because in that fight he was very effective at landing the straight right from a distance. He was knocked down because, 1 he couldn't see that well & 2 when JLC threw the left hooker-cut he ducked right into it. In the 2nd fight I'm going with Corrales again to KO him & this time earlier now that he knows he can stop him. Mental edge goes to Corrales & I wonder if that thought will linger in JLC's head. Regardless I expect a hellava fight while it lasts.
